a. A piece of cork floating in a bowl of water

b. A ship floating in the ocean

c. A hot air balloon floating in the atmosphere

3. Using a textbook of Chemistry, or a reference book of scientific tables, draw up a simple table showing the composition of air by weight and by volume.

4. Draw up a simple table showing a comparison of the atomic number, atomic weight, and density of hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, and oxygen.

5. Name two gases that are used in flying gas filled balloons.

6. Explain how heat/temperature affect the density of air, and how this applies to flying hot air balloons.

7. Explain the role of each of the following in the structure and flying of a hot air balloon:

a. Envelope

b. Support structure

c. Throat

d. Fuel source

8. Name two materials that may be used for the envelope of a hot air balloon, and compare the advantages each accords because of its properties.

a. Military campaigns

b. Scientific research

10. At what time of the day do most sport balloon flights take place? Why?

11. Describe how a pilot controls the vertical movement of

a. A hot air balloon
